Rain washes out Indy practice

UPDATE Practice for the Indianapolis 500 was canceled after persistent showers plagued the Indianapolis Motor Speedway from 11:30 a.m. until 3:15 p.m. Practice is scheduled to resume from noon-6 p.m. Thursday, followed by ‘Fast Friday’ from noon-6 p.m. Friday. Pole Day is Saturday.

05/07/08 Rain has hit the Indy Speedway just before the start of practice today and the forecast is for rain the rest of today and into tomorrow. If the teams get washed out both days they will still have Friday to practice ahead of pole qualifications on Saturday.
